Ideal Applicant
Faith-based organizations (churches, campus ministries, Christian educational institutions) or small-to-mid sized child welfare and local human services groups operating in Oklahoma or nearby states that align with evangelistic and community-service priorities.
Good Fit
- • Clear program alignment with spreading the gospel or Christian education.
- • Programs serving foster/adoptive children, food security, or local homeless services.
- • Operational presence in Oklahoma or a nearby state.
- • Capacity to accept mid-range awards (typical grants in the $5k–$100k band).
- • Existing ties or introductions from local churches or previously funded organizations.
Geography
Grants were made across roughly ten states in the observed year, showing a multi-state footprint, though the majority of dollars (about 59%) remained in the foundation's home state.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 33 distinct recipients (33 grants) with a mix of churches, Christian schools, universities and small human-service nonprofits, indicating a broad recipient set for the foundation's size despite some dollar concentration.
New Applicants
Direct evidence shows very low turnover (31 returning recipients and only 2 new grantees in 2024) and consistent repeat funding across three years; although a letter-application route exists, the observed pattern suggests new entrants face limited likelihood of entry.
